Welcome to Gaia! ::

A lesson in context:

Shinon referring to laguz as sub-human is canon, there's no need reason to clarify you have permission to be in- character from somebody else.

Shinon shaming Leena for her mistake, when Sue was clearly very upset by it and almost quit the game because she thought that everybody was mad at her was an unnecessary comment made by the player's choice. Just because Shinon would canonically be a d**k, doesn't mean the player had to make him be one when the teammate is clearly distraught enough and very easily discouraged, particular when it's from people she sees as friends. I try to be on the lookout for all comments like these.

And yes, I am, indeed.... something. Thanks for the comment made behind my back and nobody else calling her on it.

fortunately, I had a contingency plan in case both ziaram and I ******** up

it's called "seth goes up to 15, kills magey dude, holds the chokepoint, and hope he's 90% lucky"
(compared to vika's 94% chance of survival)

I want to hear some ideas from the rest of you. People seem to want to go on the offensive, but we can't go on the offensive because we keep getting pushed back at every turn as the enemy adapts. I know we can't send anybody further up without putting them in danger, but I also know we can't afford to let Jaren and the barbarian join the mage and the fighter. That will end us.

Ideas. Now.

Do you need 48 hours?

Yes, please. That would be best.


I completely agree when you say "we cannot trust the dice." So I think what we need to do is pick the path that will have the least amount of risk involved. Which one has the highest probability of everyone on the team surviving?

The mage needs to die. I have some ideas for the offensive.

Shinon moves to 15 and attacks the mage. With a +3 from iron bow and prescience, he may be able to flat out one shot the thing. Then, I will try to fly over and finish it off if it isn't dead. I'll need to roll a 5 to make that happen though. If I can't, I'll go to 14 and rescue Shinon and then somebody else can take him and set him down behind me. Then Seth finishes off the mage from 19 and cantos behind us. I know he'll be poisoned, but I honestly think taking out the mage is worth it, if he ends up needing to take that for the team. Better him who can canto away from danger than the rest of us.

If I can move to 17, I'll need to know if Mihira could survive there, assuming she's attacked by the fighter, barbarian and the dumbass. Oh, and Ziaram or Rin will need to trade me a damn vulnerary before I go, because I still haven't gotten the one I asked for. I think she has a nice chance of surviving, but if not, then scrap that idea.

Other options are for Shinon to bowfaire and then be rescued out and then if Seth rolls high enough, he can attack the mage from the trap and then canto behind us.

We just need that mage gone. If Jaren catches up, his provoke will force us to attack him and that means the mage will keep living and ******** us over. I'm good with falling back a little, but we DO need to be offensive enough this turn to get rid of the mage because once its gone, Jaren can go ******** himself.

also

So, should I still get the holy water with my next move? Or should I take another course of action?
